@plexinc/react-lightning-plugin-devtools

Building

• pnpm install
• pnpm build

This will create the files needed for the extension in the dist folder.

pnpm dev will watch for changes and re-build.

Usage

Integrating into your react-lightning app

Import the plugin:

import devtoolsPlugin from '@plexinc/react-lightning-plugin-devtools/plugin'

Include the options in the react-lightning render options:

const options: RenderOptions = {
  // ... other options
  plugins: [devtoolsPlugin(), /* other plugins */],
};

Adding devtools to Chrome

• Go to our Chrome extensions settings
• Enable Developer mode
• Select Load unpacked
• Navigate to the dist folder created from the build
• Open devtools and you should see a React Lightning panel

Note: During development, any changes to the entrypoint files or manifest may require restarting devtools or sometimes even a reload of the extension if you don't see your changes.
